Mozambican Robbers Terrorise Mutare, Rape 11 Women

The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) has confirmed the arrest of three armed robbers who had been terrorising the city and raping women. At least 11 women were molested by the gang which is suspected to have Mozambican ties. However, the Mozambican government has distanced itself from the robbers and disowned them. The three who were arrested are Artwell Mudzingwa (28) from Harare, Prosper Mudzingwa (20) from Kadoma and Domingo Luise Zuze (31), a Mozambican national.

Chief Superintendent Florence Marume said,

Eleven victims have come to us so far, claiming that they have been raped by these gangsters some we believe from Mozambique. We have engaged the Mozambican government, but they have disowned the robbers.

We are also appealing to the Mutare City Council to repair our roads because thieves and robbers are taking advantage of these roads because it is now difficult to chase them.
